CUSTOM

You want to boost your safety and keep your style ? Our leather airbag vest is made for you ! By stitching your patches you can even give the vest your own individual look! Custom guarantees a full freedom of movement and a maximum of comfort.

The leather vest CUSTOM integrates the TURTLE technology: the airbag is located under the back protector (SAS-TEC level 2). The results of absorption and distribution of shocks is considerably higher and it protects from intruding objects.

Helite airbags are mechanical to avoid unexpected airbag activation and changing batteries. No special tools or technical knowledge are required to install the lanyard on the motorcycle.

A SAS-TEC back protector Level 2 is integrated for the TURTLE effect.

Quick and easy replacement of the CO2 cartridge. It is nicely hidden in a separate pocket.

A stretchy fabric is
positioned on top of the back to optimize the protection of the neck (nicely hidden by a velcro).

This leather vest is high-quality and can be worn when it is raining. However, it was not designed to be waterproof so the best solution is to wear a waterproof jacket under your Custom airbag. If you want to wear a waterproof jacket over your Custom, it must be large enough to guarantee an optimal inflation of the airbag and to keep an optimal protection.

Like every leather vest a maintenance is necessary to keep its flexibility and its color. We recommend to maintain the airbag vest on a regular base using suitable products. Caution, do not wash the vest with a washing machine or with cleaning supplies, you can damage the leather.

Yes, as long as the airbag is in good condition (no holes, tears) you can reuse it. Easy to do, you can reset the system yourself in 2 minutes, without sending your vest back to Helite. It is only necessary to replace the CO2 cartridge with a new one, available at all Helite dealers worldwide. Please, check the size of the airbag when replacing cartridges. See our instructional video «INSTALL A NEW CARTRIDGE».

Helite airbags are mechanical to avoid unexpected airbag activation. Accidental deployments are extremely rare. The tractive force required to activate the airbag is between 20 and 30 kg depending on the size. If a rider forgets to detach from his bike, he will feel a strong tension on his vest or jacket before the airbag is triggered. As the car belt, clip and unclip the motorcycle strap will quickly become a habit.
